NOTICE
1A Measure and mark your pet's shoulder height on the
interior side of door.
1B Determine location for the pet door. Draw a vertical
center line through the shoulder height line using a
level.
NOTICE
If homeowner's door or other application is
not level, the pet door must be marked level to
swing properly.
2A Remove door by removing door hinge pins.
2B Place on a raised level surface such as saw
horses. Place interior side of door facing up.
Helpful Tip: Clamp down the door to prevent it from
moving.
Note:
The Pet Door can be installed with the door
hanging based on your skill level.
2C Cut out the correct size template. Match the
marked lines on the door with the shoulder and
center lines on the template. Tape the template in
place and carefully trace template. Make sure to
trace underneath tape and connect the corners.
Now, remove the template and any excess tape
from the door.
NOTICE
Cut out correct size template. For the Large, no
cutting is required. If installing in a wall, reduce
cut-out width by 1" (25 mm) for the Small and
Medium. For the Large reduce cut-out width by 1"
(25 mm) and cut-out height by 1" (25 mm).
NOTICE
When applying cutting template there should be a
minimum of 3" (76 mm) between the bottom and
sides of the door and the outer edge of the cutting
template to maintain the structural integrity of
the door.

Helpful Tip: Use proper saw blade length and type according to
door thickness and material (for example a wood blade for a wood
door and a metal blade for a metal door). Cut slowly using both
hands to hold the saw steady and straight at a 90° angle. This
will prevent the blade from cutting unevenly between interior and
exterior sides of the door.
Make sure there is nothing underneath the door where you will
be drilling the holes or cutting out opening.

3A Drill ½" (13 mm) holes in inside corners of drawn
template. These will be the pilot holes for the saw blade.
Helpful Tip: Use both hands to hold drill steady and straight
at a 90° angle.
3B Beginning in one of the holes just drilled, cut along the
drawn template lines. After cutting out the opening, you
may need to recut to square the opening. This is necessary
for the pet door frame to fit correctly.
Helpful Tip: Apply masking or painter's tape on bottom of
jigsaw and outer edges of drawn template to protect door
finish. Use a file to remove burrs after drilling and cuttting
to make cutting and installation easier.
NOTICE
4A Measure the thickest part (T) of your cut-out. Note
this measurement.
4B Cut the grooved side of the plastic core covers and
core cover supports to equal the cut-out thickness (T) of
your door + ⅞" (22 mm).

4C Place cut edge of bottom core cover toward you with
ribbed side facing up. Snap left core cover support into left
end of "T"-shaped rib on bottom core cover. Snap right core
cover support into right end of "T"-shaped rib on bottom
core cover. With channel sides facing in, align uncut edge
(side with one rib) of side core covers with uncut edge of
core cover supports. Slide channel of side core covers onto
tab of core cover supports to form a "U"-shape.
4D Slide weather strips into channels of side core
covers. Weather strips should face inside. Weather strips
may need trimming to meet at end of side core covers.
